THE/TOMAS/SON/FAMILY – VII: Bunny Hairpin
This is a bloody scene that is difficult to reproduce even in cult movies.
A pile of stripped human flesh was stacked on top of each other in the snowy clearing, their limbs in pieces. The ground was covered with blood, their skulls were neatly stacked in the shape of minarets, the tops of their heads were slashed open without exception, and their brains were sucked clean. Every face was familiar to Xu Lie.
”What… Did these to them?”
Xu Lie’s voice trembled violently.
A dark spot in the clearing stood out, a burnt-out fire with a palm on a tree branch.
Lin Rurui replied, “You already have the answer in your heart.”
The love of cooked food over raw food, and the skilful technique of making a fire, all indicate that what ate the student had some intelligence, and was probably human!
“There are man eaters… hiding in the woods?” On this cold day, Xu Lie was sweating profusely.
“There are quite a few of them, it’s the cannibals.” Lin Rurui squatted down and grabbed a handful of ashes from the campfire.
”Oh no.” She suddenly said, “The ashes are hot!”
At the same time, a sharp sense of crisis approached, and she backhanded Xu Lie and pushed him aside. In the next moment, two sharp arrows shot out from the forest into the space between them.
The surrounding sea of trees swayed, creepy strange laughter mingled with the sound of the wind, and a pair of green glittering eyes lit up one after another in the shade of the trees, excited and brutally malicious.
Lin Rurui pulled out the arrow on the ground and threw it back, and a scream rose up in response, followed by the sound of a heavy object falling to the ground.
After a momentary pause in their laughter, as if they hadn’t expected Lin Rurui to hurt their companion, the cannibals, out of their rage, sprang out of the woods with spears in hand.
Their appearance wasn’t different from the image on Morgan Thomason’s painting at home. Barefoot in the snow, with only the hide of the beast around their waists, they were not afraid of the cold. They are strong, hairy, rickety, beast-like, and have sharp teeth.
Some carried crude bows and arrows, some held spears, and some waved a half-eaten female thigh. Forty or fifty ogres rushed out and surrounded Lin Xu and his family in the center.
”This, this is what eats people!?”
The lobes of his lungs contracted with fear, and Xu Lie was having difficulty breathing, when suddenly his hand heaved and someone shoved a cold, heavy object into his hand. When he looked down, it was a gun!
Lin Rurui asked, “Can you shoot?”
Xu Lie nodded fiercely and wiped the tip of his reddened nose: “At least I’ve played shooting games!” He didn’t ask where Lin Rurui’s gun came from, there was always a secret about the big boss that he didn’t know.
The pitbull barked wildly at them. The ogre was exceptionally strong, nearly two meters tall, with a face like a hellish Asura, and a scar running through both eyes that made him even more terrifying. Although blind, the other ogres looked up to him. This should be the leader.
When the leader pointed in their direction, the other ogres roared like wild beasts, jumped and ran, and charged.
With a clang of knives, Lin Rurui drew the blades on her back, and ran toward the other side. There was a gunshot behind her at the same time.
Although it was Xu Lie’s first time touching a real gun in reality, he was so bold and courageous that he wasn’t afraid of it, and it took him a little time to get comfortable with it.
The gunshots rang out over the clearing, and tongues of fire licked out of the muzzles of the guns. The ogres’ muscles were so tight and their bones so strong that sometimes the bullets couldn’t even penetrate them completely, and the bullets were stuck miserably in the bones. Xu Lie had to take one more shot to make them fall.
He guessed that Lin Rurui who used melee weapons would be more troubled.
Thinking so, Xu Lie took a glance at the big boss, but he almost dropped his jaw in shock. The ogres became softer than tofu under the blade, and were cut off alive. Before they could trust out their spear, the blade was already in front of them.
Blood shot and flesh flew everywhere. It was a complete one-sided massacre!
Lin Rurui’s expression remained indifferent. In a trance, Xu Lie thought he had mistakenly entered a fruit cut game, while Lin Rurui was just chopping up fruits and vegetables.
The blind chief realized that it was no good. Their position as hunters had changed to prey. The chief shouted, “Back to the woods! Back to the woods!”
Lin Rurui paused..
The chief’s voice… sounded familiar.
The group of ogres retreated into the shadows like a tidal wave, but these ogres didn’t give up.
Xu Lie vigilantly observed the surroundings and was about to make a sound, when a dense rain of arrows suddenly shot out of the woods. It was dense and overwhelming. Xu Lie only had one thought in his head: “My life is over.”
A hand cupped the back of his neck and pushed him face down into the snow. A hot wave of fire followed.
He don’t know where the fire came from in this freezing weather. But it was so hot that he felt cooked on his back!
The rain of arrows fell apart in the firestorm, leaving only bits of debris splattered on the ground and smoke.
”Mo, monster! You are the devil!”
As soon as Xu Lie was released, he saw the ogre pointing at Lin Rurui and shouting, while running into the woods. Xu Lie was a bit dumbfounded. A group of monsters calling a human being a monster? What do you call this operation?
Lin Rurui chased. Xu Lie thought inwardly, “Hey, hey that is a monster, boss! Ah my boss is just so strong that she overdid it and making the monster call her monster and we’re chasing the man eating monsters now…” He spat inwardly while busy to keep up with her.
The ogre’s shadow was nowhere to be seen as he ran, but a lake appeared in front of them.
It was a wooden hut, and the pitbull missing in action was wagging its tail wildly at the bottom of the steps in front of the hut.
Xu Lie asked Lin Rurui, “Boss, want to go take a look?”
The two walked up to the hut, which had no windows, a small chimney at the top, and a heavy iron lock for the door.
”Looks like the owner went out.” Xu Lie scratched his head, “Why don’t we just go?”
”Go in and take a look,” said Lin RuRui, “The game doesn’t set up clues that are useless. There must be a reason for the hut’s appearance.”
”Then I’ll find out if there’s any wire and pry the lock open.”
As soon as the words left his mouth, there was a click, the lock fell to the ground, and Lin Rurui had pushed the door in.
”So the lock is broken, huh?” Xu Lie muttered as he squatted down to pick up the lock, but he didn’t cry out in pain, “What the hell?” His fingers were instantly burned with a scalding, and it turned out that the lock had not been damaged naturally, but had been melted and broken by the extreme heat.
The room was dimly lit, a small area of about ten square feet, with a curtain separating the main hall from the bedroom. Behind the curtain was a small bed with a pink rabbit doll at the head of it.
”A little girl’s boudoir?” The two of them were standing in front of the curtain when a stone suddenly flew through the air and struck Xu Lie in the back.
”Ouch!” He turned around and saw the youngest son of the Thomasson family holding a pile of rocks in his arms, standing vigilantly at the door.
Xu Lie was furious: “Bear child, didn’t your parents teach you not to throw rocks at people?”
Daniel only said coldly, “Get out of my house!”
”How rude!” Xu Lie jumped to his feet. Daniel’s face suddenly changed, and he saw Lin Rurui pick up the picture frame that was upside down on the table, and examine the group photo inside the frame.
It was a family portrait, but the two adult figures had been erased by the black marker, leaving only a man and a woman and two children sitting on the lawn, snuggled up to each other with warm, happy smiles on their faces.
”Why did you run away from the cabin?” Lin Rurui asked.
”What does it matter you!?” The picture frame was viciously snatched back from her hand, and Daniel gritted his teeth as he stared at her, suddenly giving an odd expression, “You’re going to die anyway. All of you are going to die.”
”Bah, bah, bah! Don’t say anything depressing, you brat!” Xu Lie was busy spitting.
But Daniel ignored them, holding a pile of stones around the small fireplace in the center of the room, and began to burn wood for a fire. The wood is soaked in ice water, damp and heavy and difficult to ignite, only a wisp of choking black smoke.
Daniel choked a few coughs, was about to move away from a little, the shadow beside him fell, is Lin Rurui cross-legged sitting next to him. Daniel’s hand of firewood was taken by her, winked out a bright fire. Daniel was so dumbfounded that he couldn’t tell whether the fire came from the wood or from her fingers.
Lin Rurui lit the firewood one by one and stuffed it into the stove, clapped his hands, and felt something in his pocket. The moment he saw the object, Daniel’s appearance changed. It was a pink bunny hairpin, lying quietly in the girl’s pale palm.
”Where did you find this?” Daniel’s voice showed some sharpness.
”It was found in the kennel, it should be your dog’s hideout.” Lin Rui handed him the hairpin, “Can you tell me exactly how Emma died?”
Daniel pursed his lips. Lin Rurui understood that he didn’t want to talk about it, so she stood up and walked out of the house.
Just before Lin Ruarui stepped out of the house, he suddenly blurted out, “Watch out for Jenny Thomasson and Morgan Thomasson!”
”Aren’t they your parents?” Lin Rurui didn’t say anything, but Xu Lie was amazed.
”Used to be!” Daniel’s voice was as cold and hard as a stone in the snow: “Until they killed Emma! If you don’t leave soon, you’ll become one of those abominable things too!”
”What…” Xu Lie wanted to ask, but the house was slammed shut. This time, the door was locked from the inside.
Until they returned to the cabin, Xu Lie was still filled with indignation: “Mr. and Mrs. Thomason are good people, how could they kill their own children? Boss, that kid is definitely not normal!”
Lin RuRui thought about it. When she found the rabbit hairpin in the kennel, Setekh’s report reminded her that it was a key item, so she carried it with her in case she needed it. When she saw the same doll on her bedside table in the lake house, she realized that the time had come to use the prop. With some skill, she was able to get the key information out of Daniel.
She was more concerned with Daniel’s last words than with the fact that the Thomassons had killed their little girl. The words gave off an air of unease, as if they hid the gory truth and the core.
What is this abomination? What conditions needed to be triggered to become them?
Before he reached the door, the cabin door suddenly opened, and Old Li hastily pulled the two people into the cabin. Everyone gathered in the living room of the cabin, and the atmosphere was depressing and sad. Lin Rurui’s thoughts were interrupted, and she wondered if the villa had experienced another change in the half day she had been away. Old Li’s next words confirmed her suspicions.
“Not good! More students are missing!”
XWV: No, no mistake. Its written as ogre, so yeah, basically from the hint this chapter, human can become ogres. Also the boss thing could also means big bro.
